When I was talking to my insurance agent he'd said, now if it's sloppy Ness say of a city/ municipality etc that weed have a week to get them for a claim against them , I pointed that out to him that it happened to me & I made them pay but I couldn't chase the turd down I would have beat him senseless and wound up in jail so I had to pave a 200.00 deductible .

A little further along:
Headers are going out for coating and by the time we get them back (week of Aug 18), we should be pretty much ready to fire it up the first time.

Update: Went to the Des Moines Cars and Coffee today for a show and dyno! Figured I'd take Sean's (MJJ) advice and try Karl's Performance. They had a superflow dyno. I hope waking up at 4:45 am to drive 2 hours to cool down in time, was finally worth it. Turns out, it was finally a success.
We arrived there at 7:15. Parked, and put my name in for the dyno shootout. I let 2 other guys get on before me. I got on, around 9. Almost 2 hours of cool down would hopefully do the trick. Temp was 70ish…hardly any humidity. Perfect.
Got strapped on within minutes. And his "setup" time, literally took many 5 minutes tops. Started the car, and within a couple minutes of additional set up and sync time, we literally did our first pull.
Finally!!! Redemption! Numbers where I wanted to be! (sortta…lol) 521 whp and 446 wtq. 15 to 20% loss, puts me at what, between 615 and 650 crank hp? Best part is the flat torque "curve"… hehe.

Darren, I'm envious of your Ducati.

I went to a car show in Beverly Massachusetts with the Mustangs of Massachusetts... we met in Swampscott and had a convoy to the show that went to the Cummings Center by way of Marblehead Neck, a very expen$ive oceanfront neighborhood with some fantastic views.

I ran autocross with mine. I'm probably one of the slowest people out there (certainly the slowest in Time Only), but I had a blast. My runs were all clean and I chopped 9% off of my time. I'm learning.

I did. I used my new Hero3+ Silver Edition for the first time today, along with the GoPro app for my smart phone as a remote. On my first run I inadvertently switched to snapshot mode, but I corrected that for subsequent runs. I shot at 720 at 120FPS in medium field of view with the camera mounted right at the top of the windshield. I need to get my last run processed and loaded onto YouTube and post a link..

Gabe I'd be all up for that.
Nick, here's another option. What if I bought a brand new set of fogs from either Ford or elsewhere, in box, have them ship it to you directly? Or, I could clearly document (pictures, etc) the items before I shipped them to you?
Gabe is right though...I'd be the last person you would have to worry about ANYthing being scratched

We typically charge $100 for local angel eye installations, when the headlights are brought in.
It's just too risky to have customers mail in headlights. We don't want to create any additional hassle for customers.
I know from experience converting my GT's front end, how hard it is to find GT500 headlights and fog lights (bought mine used)

We may offer this service in the future. It's a shame you aren't local to us! I'd love to have you bring them in

Send us an email and we may be able to work something out for you: contact@diodedynamics.com
That would be entirely up to our production team, but that's a good suggestion
A friend of mine from Kansas City will be sending us a brand new set of headlights for his Viper ACR

Hmmm...I never really thought of that, but it's not something we would expect customers to do.
